To all whom it may concern:

Be it' known that I, KARL PAUL GOTT- sorrALK, engineer, a subject of the Republic of Saxony, German Republic, and resident of 19 Reicl-zerstrasse, Dresden, Republic of Saxony, German Republic, have invented a new and useful Apparatus for Supplying Color to Vertical Stamping Rollers, of which the following is a specification.

The present invention has for its object an apparatus for transmitting or supplying color or liquid color from a horizontally arranged color-box onto a vertical stampingroller rotating on a vertical shaft. For this purpose the color or liquid coloris removed from the horizontally arranged color-box by rollers or cylinders rotating on horizon tal shafts and transmitted or supplied to or onto the lateral or front surface of a disc rotating on a. horizontal shaft or onto the periphery of a conical disc or roller by the contact of the transmitting roller proper with the surface of the disc, said contact being maintained in a horizontal plane laid through the rotary shaft, or with the slanting surface of the conical disc or roller. The color or liquid color transmitted or supplied to the'surfa ce of the disc in the manner described is removed from the surface of the disc by a. roller or cylinder rotating on a vertical shaft, said roller or cylinder being in contact with the upper or lower part of. the surface of the disc in the vertical planelaid through the shaft. The color or liquid color is thereafter transmi ted or'supplied from said roller onto the stamping-roller.

The object of the present invention is represented in the drawing annexed as an ex ample of construction.v Fig. 1 is a longitudinal elevation, Fig. 2 a plan and Fig. 3 a front elevation;

' a is the color-box horizontally arranged, b a transmission roller closing the one side of said box in such a manner that the roller 5 a disc rotating on a horizontal shaft and beingin contact by its lateral or front surface with the roller 0 in a horizontal plane laid through the horizontal shaft of said roller 0 so as totransrnit or supply the color 7 from the roller 0 onto the surface of the disc- (Z. 6 or e is a roller rotating on a vertical shaft and being in contact with the upper or lower part of the disc d in such a manner that the roller 6 or e is situated at 90 or 270 degrees in face of the roller 0 and the color is transmitted or supplied from the surface of the disc (Z onto the roller 6 or 6. From said roller the color is transmitted for instance by means of an intermediate roller 7' to a stamping roller 9 or the like.

' In the manner described it ispossible to transmit the color or liquid'color by rollers and a disc or roller from a horizontally aring said color or liquid color in a vertical plane perpendicular to the vertical plane first mentioned and means for supplying the color or liquid transmitted in a horizontal plane towards and onto the stamping roller.

2. In an apparatus for transmitting or supplying color or liquid color from a horizontally arranged color-box onto a stamping-roller vertically arranged and rotating on a vertical shaft, the combination with said box and stamping roller, of transmission rollers rotating on horizontal shafts, a disc rotating on a horizontal shaft and receiving the color from the rollers on its lateral or front surface, a roller receiving on its periphery the color or liquid color transmitted through the disc rotating on a shaft and means for transmitting the color from the roller last mentioned to the stamping-roller. V

3. In an apparatus for transmitting or supplying color or liquid color from a hori-,-

zontally arranged color-box onto a stamping-roller vertically arranged and rotating on a vertical shaft, the combination with said box and stamping roller, of transmission-rollers rotating on horizontal shafts, a disc rotating on a horizontal shaft and receiving the color from the transmission rollers on its lateral or front surface, a

roller receiving on its periphery the color transmitted through the disc rotating on ashaft and situated in a vertical plane laid throughthe shaft of the disc and an intermediate roller transmitting the color from the roller first mentioned onto the stamping roller, one of the transmission-rollers resting against the lateral or front surface o V the disc and being situated in a horizontal plane laid through the shaft of. the disc.

In testimony, that I claim the foregoing as my invention, I have, signed my name this nineteenth clay of May, 1923.

KARL PAUL GOTTSCHALK.
